We (Mamona Team) updated the Mamona SDK tutorial including Xephyr. Now you’re able to execute Enlightenment from your Mamona rootfs using qemu-arm and Xephyr like Maemo.

Developers interested in Mamona, please report what do you want from Mamona !

Your opinion is important to improve our environment!

A few weeks ago we got a BeagleBoard from Texas Instrument.

Thanks to Texas Instrument for this good project !!!

The answer to Mamona and BeagleBoard: when?:

Now we have Mamona working with TVOUT using this board.  Nice !!

ASAP I will post more details about this topic.

We’re proud to announce that Firefox 3 is working with Mamona. Thanks to all Mamona team, especially Eduardo Valentin.

Instruction:

Follow Mamona development tutorial replacing  ” bitbake <meta-package>” for “bitbake task-mamona-sdk && bitbake task-mamona-wm && bitbake firefox”.

And you will have Firefox 3 available in your Mamona repository.

Since Friday(July 25th) we’re able to build Midori Browser based on Webkit with Mamona tools. We tested this browser with Nokia N810 and BeagleBoard.

Main steps to Build Midori:

Follow the Mamona development  till Building Mamona.

Replace  ” bitbake <meta-package>” for “bitbake task-mamona-sdk && bitbake task-mamona-wm && bitbake midori” at setion Building Mamona.

And Midori will be available in your Mamona repository.

That’s all!!

I found a good tutorial to install Java under Ubuntu and I followed the steps under Debian. And it works.

Reference : http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-ubuntu-linux-install-configure-jdk-jre/

The main steps are ->

Install the Java:

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk

Setting up:

sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun
Insert  “/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun” in the of /etc/jvm using a text editor.
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

Testing:

java –version

Create HelloWorld.java ->

public class HelloWorld {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    }
}

javac HelloWorld.java
java HelloWorld

That’s it!!

Hi all,

Our friend Antonio Gomes AKA Tonikitoo organized a party named Junglefox. The goal was to celebrate Firefox 3 release and put together users and developers of this excellent browser.

We had a good party !! Thanks to Tonikitoo and all the Browser guys from INdT team.

More pictures …

I named the post as “Junglefox I” because I will be waiting for the next party.

See you…

I’m working with Mamona. The full build takes around 5 hours. It’s good excuse, is not it?

See you!

I’m waiting the opportunity to put my hands on a Beagleboard and test many things.

My TODO list include Mamona test with BeagleBoard.

Mamona and BeagleBoard: When? 

I have a N810 and 3 OS in the same device.

Now you will ask me : How?

The answer is below:

1 - Move your Maemo to the MMC internal

* Advantage : you will have more space.

Steps:  http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowTo_EASILY_Boot_From_MMC_card/

Now you have the Maemo in the internal MMC.

2 -  Flash Mamona in your flash memory

* Advantage: Nowadays Mamona distro is good for developers.

Steps:  http://dev.openbossa.org/trac/mamona/wiki/Releases/0.1/RunningMamona

3 - Debian XFCE in external MMC

* Advantage:  Debian rocks !!

You should partition your MicroSD in 2 parts:

- partition 1 - 100MB - fat32

- partition 2 - ALL THE REST - ext2

Download the Debian rootfs

wget  http://debian.i2c3.com/debian-armel-n800-xfce-beta3.tar.bz2

Untar the Debian rootfs in the second partition:

tar -xvjf  debian-armel-n800-xfce-beta3.tar.bz2

Boot using your external MMC.

That’s all!!
